Only present if a minimum can be specified.

Maximum text box

Font size text box

Specify the point size for the axis label and tick marks in the text box. The default is 13.

Label angle text box

Specify the angle in degrees at which to tilt the tick marks of the axis. For example, an angle of 0 results in horizontal tick marks, an angle of 45 rotates the tick marks by 45 degrees clockwise, and an angle of -45 rotates the tick marks by 45 degrees counterclockwise.

Log option

Plot the values of the axis on a logarithmic scale instead of a linear scale.

Not available if the axis cannot be displayed on a logarithmic scale.
